Ive had it happen happen! We had a Lombady Poplar to take down, it was fully mature as it goes (big weed, but thats my view). The reason for the tree to be removed was it was causing damage to a council houses foundations that the "posh" estate backed on to. I was probably about 50ft up it throwing dead branches out as is i ascended upwards to get anchored, then there was a big commotion down below. Some crazy pensionor from next door had come into the property going mad about the tree having to be removed and tried standing under the tree. After 20 mins of trying to reason with the silly sod he started trying to swing/pull on my lines, the ground staff had to in restrain him (reluctantly cause of his age)! Had to call the old bill on him and after 3 hours with the police, planning department, insurance company the problem was resolved and if the bloke ever set foot on the property again he would get arrested. close to that video but he pi88ed me off that much he was lucky he didnt get "some dead wood on the head".
